PR15 stands for "Player Rater 15." It is a rating system developed by ESPN that takes the player statistics in relevant fantasy statistical categories for the past 15 days, and compares them to the average player.

How do you get your players from a trade in ESPN fantasy baseball?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When a trade has been accepted by both managers the players will transfer automatically to their new teams. However some leagues require a 24, 48, or 72hr review period for which other teams can vote on the equality of the trade. Once that time span has passed and assuming it wasn't vetod they will move. Alternatively the league manager can "push" the trade thru to expedite this process. Chk your league settings (tab at top of page) to determine the review period legnth and set up.

What is the difference between Fantasy and Roto Baseball?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Fantasy Baseball is more general, as it refers to any type of fantasy competition in baseball. Roto is a type of such a competition, as opposed to head-to-head.

Roto is short for rotisserie, which translates stats of your players into points, and the team in your league with the most points wins.

Rotisserie Baseball was the original and played a 4x4 format for its league. It was started in New York City about 1980. Most of its members loved to play Strat-o-Matic as boys and this took its place in many cases. Today, thanks to computerized stats, fantasy baseball can take on many more statistical categories and can be played head to head as well.

What is Waiver Priority in Fantasy Baseball?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Waiver Wire is the first 2 days after a player has been dropped or added by a team or added to fantasy baseball. So, if someone drops Jeff Francouer on Monday, you can try to claim him. If he doesn't get claimed, by Wednesday he is a free agent. Claiming is when you add and/or drop (a) player(s). Waiver Priority is the order of claiming. If six teams claim Jeff Francouer, the team with the highest Waiver Priority gets him. Waiver Priority isn't first come first serve, but free agency is.

Is it better to draft a pitcher or batter in fantasy baseball?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In my opinion, it is better to draft hitters early as it is trhen easy to fill in the positions with consistent players. However, if there is a very good pitcher, you may want to draft him, but there are probably going to be more sleepers later in the year you can get.
